@BaseGeld @adamscochran to clarify, is this only using code from the miner or is this using code from the 0xBitcoin token contract itself? A bug was found in the original 0xBitcoin token contract that allowed for new minting to be halted; 0xBTC as it stands is broken.
This account will make sure to keep everyone updated on what the community decides to do going forward. Some ideas floated have been a brand new V2 with fixes or a V2 with a V1 swap (continuing the original distribution curve).
Important Announcement: The 0xBitcoin contract's mining bug has finally been exploited. The contract is unable to mint new 0xBitcoin, and it is no longer possible to mint 0xBTC.
Where the 0xBitcoin token and the community goes from here is up in the air! It's an exciting time for many in the 0xBTC community, but understandably also a sad moment for many.
Bitcoin is, perhaps not fatally, but fundamentally flawed.
0xBitcoin resolves the inherent contradictions of Bitcoin by utilizing secure Ethereum PoS for security. Because of this, 0xBTC can sustainably ensure 21mil cap and retain hard-money properties of BTC in the long run.
Took a quick look at Bitcoin's security spend. In short, it's not looking good. "Fees will replace block rewards" is completely not the case so far.
What we instead see is diminishing security over time, surprisingly consistently. This makes Bitcoin vulnerable 🧵 (short)
If you are going to let a centralized party manage a bridge - the assets *MUST* be legally separated in FBO accounts otherwise they are subject to bankruptcy.
Biggest market risk here is for sure wBTC.
We've been tweeting and writing about this since (*checks notes*) 2018. https://t.co/IN5a4TZYpJ
The solution is simple: re-implement important protocols like Bitcoin as native assets on the chains where actual DeFi activity happens, like Ethereum. #0xBitcoin
It feels like most ppl are ignoring the bankruptcy risk for bridged assets.
- Assets bridged to smartBCH were rugged by CoinFlex when it went under due to not liquidating roger ver
- FTX bridge on solana rugged by liquidators
- BTC backing renBTC rugged by liquidators too

We get MEXC reps in the 0xBitcoin discord all the time trying to prey on our community for BS like this.
The 0xBitcoin community BS-meter has been honed for years, with 0xBTC being born in the trenches of the scam ICO crazy. Miss us with these PnD games, we have self respect.
1. Buy a new microcrap coin on an exchange like @MEXC_Global with 370k volume
2. Tweet about it to your 290k followers
3. Daily volume hits 620k, which means 250 followers had to buy 1k each to pump it.
4. Tell everyone on twitter what a godlike trader you are
5. @zachxbt ?
A late congratulations to the Ethereum community for another successful milestone in Shapella. Looking forward to future updates to improve scaling and privacy.
0xBitcoin benefits from all Ethereum network upgrades, while maintaining its immutable economics. The ideal hard-money
For the trillionth time. We don't need BTC bridged to Ethereum. This is impossible to do trustlessly. We need the Bitcoin protocol implemented on Ethereum natively.
We need 0xBitcoin.
0xBitcoin was the first PoW mined ERC20 in the Ethereum network, and its necessity becomes increasingly clear as the Ethereum network becomes further entrenched as the dominant global platform.
We can build the economic system the world needs now without custodians or bridges.
This account doesn't generally post about price, because the last thing we want to do is resemble the pump and dump schemes that were rampant when 0xBitcoin was first created in 2018 (and remain rampant today).
But there is a lesson to be learned from recent movements 👇
We encourage the broader crypto community to consider the benefits of adopting a hard-money asset that can be upgraded in utility (through Ethereum improvements) while remaining unalterable as a smart contract.
